Buer was a mid-sized industrial city in Westphalia — absorbed into Gelsenkirchen in 1928 — and like hundreds of German municipalities in late 1923, its city treasury (Stadtkasse) was forced to print emergency currency simply to meet weekly payroll. The five-hundred-billion-Mark denomination places this squarely in the terminal weeks of the hyperinflation, when the Reichsbank's own presses could not keep pace and local authorities across Germany issued Notgeld under Reich authorization.
By November 1923, a single US dollar exchanged for roughly 4.2 trillion Marks. Notes of this face value had a purchasing life measured in days.
